For species such as pollack, survival is increased in catch-and-release angling if they are released at depth and not on the surface. Our stand at today's Seafood Innovation Conference includes a SeaQualizer, used to release fish at depth. @bd-stew.bsky.social @rmawer.bsky.social

There were glimmers of spring yesterday, teasing us before today's storm. I heard a skylark singing and saw a brimstone butterfly - February is going well so far.
